Sorry cyb that was not meant to sound rude. I have thought about dressing her as a house or drawing a building on a shirt...but it is a bit odd

Architect: black jeans, nehru jacket, interesting glasses?

Nelson's column: all grey plus boater with Action Man stuck on the top?

Well I would be expecting a replica of the Sagrada Familia crafted of papier mache and macaroni - as a hat!

The writing on the wall (from the Old Testament book of Daniel) - tshirt with "Mene, Mene, Tekel u-Pharsin" written on it? Nice and random/obscure!

Like the Nelson's Column idea though.

Thought statue of liberty, green sheet, torch and crown, what do you think?

I also like the nelson's column idea, a friend suggested, a building at night, black top, black leggings and white squares stuck / pinned / sewn on.

Wow - that's a tough one. Can see lots of cardboard being required.

Half painted = Forth Road Bridge
All in green = gherkin
All in cellophane = greenhouse
